'Crescent Moon' (from 'The Gospels According to Dr Sax')
Recorded one winter's afternoon in Supersonix studio, this was the first recording that we made for the 'Gospels' album. The studio was booked out to another musician and we were booked as his backing band for the afternoon but as it turned out he didn't have anything planned, so we offered to put something down for him that he could add to later, which he subsequently decided not to use(!) so we did!
The drums, bass and sax all went down live and this is the second take. There were a couple of dumbeks (turkish drums) in the studio and Steve overdubbed these and later on I added the keyboard parts.
The guitar parts were added another six months later when guitar genius Kit Morgan came down to the studio for a day to add all of his guitar parts for the album. This absolutely stunning guitar work was overdubbed live in the control room in one take, a truly awesome performance.
